Yup it won’t be as simple as changing login names.. Even if it is not OTB groups if you have customization workflow based on customized groups, it would still present that same problem..
Exporting def files in xml format and looking for those group names and replacing them should work but it will be a really long process.. What is the need to do that? Maybe there is an alternative you could look at like maybe an alias or something?

There are several workflow objects (Active Links, Filters) built based on Run If qualifications that use Group Name. In case of Custom Group names there should be no problems unless there could be some custom workflow who uses Group Name field values for your custom groups. You can use ARSmarts tool for searching Run If qualifications in Objects in order to verify use of Group Name field values.

I would need to check for any workflow qualifications that use group names, but would there be anything else to watch out for? Thanks for the advice!
